That French ebay site lists blue, black or red as available for the A610 for the boost/air intake pipes. (No yellow folks)
They also have a water pipe set for the A610- but of course not the two RHD specific hoses (and its 500 Euro).

Sounds like we might be duplicating things with Samco on the air hoses, but a deal needs doing on the water ones (as I have had the main rear hoses go, I suspect that many A610' will be needing new water hoses too- mine is one of the last, and not high mileage).

John how do you keep your engine bay so clean :?: I think I would have to go for black to be honest. Those french ones are 320 euro plus 20 euro shipping, probably looking at £300 after exchange rates. Mr Dell do you think samco will beat/match that price after we probably wait 2 years for them to be made?

Most of my engine bay water hoses have been replaced, which are the 2 which are RHD only, the ones near the radiator I guess?

Samco ones will be significantly cheaper, better quality and will match the other hoses.

The previous owner of my car stripped that awful paint off the engine cover so it was back to the aluminuim. I gave it a machine polish and it came up an absolute treat. I always think most 610 engine's look a mess simply because of that.

OK Stephen on the Samco vs French, but in my case I expect to need water hoses before the air ones....any idea if they'll do the front hoses?
(Martin the RHD specific ones go to and from the radiator/heater core and are pretty complex, I think the engine bay ones are the same as LHD).

I am still interested in a set of coolant hoses for my Atmo, if necessary just a set of carb to pump etc ones, according to Mecaparts there are 8 of them. What is the chance of getting a set of these from Samco Stephen?

These are silicone hoses....anybody know anything about them :?:

No special arrangement but Andy might be able to point you in the right direction.

We normally use straight silicone or OEM for the others but the Meca ones are cheap enough.

All in hand, had a chat with the production manager on the Samco stand at Autosport as a reminder.
